Peak bagging is here Walk over a summit with a recording running and HiiKER bags it for you. Munros, Wainwrights, Corbetts and hundreds of lists besides: see everything you've climbed in My Peaks, watch a list fill up, and find where you stand on its leaderboard. Free, for everyone. Augmented Reality Peak Viewer Hold your phone up and the Peak Viewer labels the mountains in front of you with their names, heights and distances, and shows which ones you've already bagged. It locks onto the skyline your camera sees and stays there as you pan. Turn-by-turn guidance while you walk Your planned route now talks you through it: a turn banner on the recording screen, spoken aloud, arrows on the map at every turn, a directions list for the whole walk, and the same on your Apple Watch. It works with no signal and tells you out loud if you stray off route. Included with HiiKER PRO. Widgets and watch complications Open the map, start a recording or find a hike in one tap from your Home Screen, Lock Screen or watch face, and keep this month's distance, elevation and hike count on your Home Screen.

Hard to cancel

I got this app but after it quietly and without notice renewed the following year, when I wasn’t using it at all (my own circumstance not the app) . Most established softwares will send a renewal reminder, an invoice THEN take pay . Anyway within 12 hours of this I’d let the company know I’d not touched the app and hadn’t wanted a renewal and was sent a Google form for a refund . Completed it . Nothing . Asked again. Told brusquely it can take a while. A year later , nothing. Now I’m only here to ensure that this app will NOT try to quietly take a third year . It’s not easy to cancel and I hate this level of transparency just message re renewals and honour any promises after !

Dislivelli completamente errati

Ho importato tre tracce dell’Alta Via di Neves in valle Aurina e tutte e tre segnano un dislivello molto superiore al reale . Inoltre App e sito web non tradotto in italiano

Not what I hoped for

There are very few trails mapped out in this app in my area. As I was trying to map one out in an area that actually has trails mapped it keeps jumping my route to a nearby road and totally ignores the trail. This is very frustrating.

The best navigation app on offer

This is hands down the best navigation app in the uk by a significant margin. They combine all of the best maps available through a modern, customisable interface, with useful layers.

Recording

Would be far better to have just 1 button to start your recording. This is the first app where by you need to tap 2 or 3 different buttons to record. A few time I thought I was recording a track only to find I wasn’t.
